None are so blind as those who will not see.
Who was it who was responsible for the "bloated squad" in the first place?????
Anyway, as it seems that all are content with having spent £4m on 49 minutes of nothing, I suggest we all stop any further criticism of Patrick Bamford as he at least is fit, contributes excellent hold up play (i think all would agree on that?), and occasionally scores a goal or two, much better value for his weekly wage than JKA and a snip at 7m (or was it 10? Still cheap in comparison to what we might have to shell out for the lump from Leipzig!).
Which January signings have made other teams better? Last time I looked we’re out on our own top of the league...
Hmmmn you are beginning to sound like Donald Trump. No regard to facts or what you may have said before.
Somewhat ironic that whilst you don’t like people commenting on what you say unless in full agreement with you that now you tell people not to comment on Bamford.
What would you like to discuss the aesthetic qualities of this seasons kits?
I actually wasn't that bothered about the January window. Inevitably there are players available however the price some clubs want for them makes it out of the question and if they were any good, why would they be in the shop window. No, I think Bielsa knows that we have some top talent in the U23's and more importantly, they will have been schooled in the Bielsa methods so can hit the ground running as and when they pop into the 1st team. My main concerns are whether we can somehow finance a package that will prise Ben White away from Brighton, I know Liverpool have been sniffing around and no doubt a few more Prem clubs so it's not going to be easy and secondly whether we can find a replacement for Pablo. We must definately need another play maker.
Develop the ability to sense irony in a post?
If Bamford f00ks up, (fortunately he didnt yesterday!) I expect he will be subject to criticism and I imagine I'll be in there. The point I was making (clearly lost on you) was that compared to the £4m we have already spent on the lumbering clod from Liepzig, and the commitment we still appear to be under to buy said lump for £18m, Bamford was a snip at £7m (plus add-ons to £10m) and very much earns his wages which are considerably lower than our dear (temporarily?) departed supposed striker, who clearly hasn't been given wings despite his associated with RB Leipzig.
That being so, I suggested (with a clearly unrecognised note of irony) that perhaps, as many posters seemed resigned to the spen on JKA and the prospect of a lot more being spent without any clear idea as to whether he will ever play for us, that we should stop criticing Bamford, who does at least play, stays fit, and scores occasionally, got that, pumpkin?
Btw, as for people commenting on what I say, happy for that to happen, and to respond if I see fit, isn't that what discussion on a forum is all about?
Please do articulate what you think have been major positive decisions by the board in the last two years?
As for having Warnock back, if we were facing relegation, as he seems to have a penchant for lifting that type of club away from the drop, maybe. As we're not in that unhappy position, no, he can stay at Boro.
